Galidraan
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Galidraan was a planet of snow-capped mountains and large pine forests, and was controlled by a planetary governor, who resided in an opulent castle in the midst of a forest.
[edit] History
Galidraan was absorbed into Xim's empire as he expanded his borders from the Kingdom of Cron circa 25,126 BBY. After the fall of the empire in 25,100 BBY, it would eventually join the Galactic Republic. After centuries of Republic rule, Galidraan was the site of a battle between the Jedi Order and the True Mandalorians. Jedi Master Dooku, Padawan Komari Vosa, and an entire task force of Jedi later discovered they had been tricked into slaughtering the True Mandalorians by the governor, who had falsified the atrocities they had committed. From this battle, only a single Mandalorian, Jango Fett, survived; returning to the planet two years later to reclaim his armor.
